Luis Mena confirmed the list of 22 players summoned by the Chilean National Team to face Uruguay. Sonya Keefe and Camila Sáez return.
The Chilean National Team will end the action during 2024 with the FIFA date in November, the last of the year. The team led by Luis Mena scheduled two friendlies against Uruguay that will be played on Saturday, November 30 and Tuesday, December 3 in Chile.
The list of 22 players who will go with La Roja to play against the Charrúas was confirmed this Thursday. The big surprises are Camila Sáez and Sonya Keefe, who return after a long time. There are no possible debutants in the national team ahead of the friendlies against the Uruguayans.
Karen Araya is one of the most important casualties of the Chilean National Team for this FIFA date. He still hasn’t returned to the call. She joins several local players who were left out, such as Kathalina Guerrero, Llanka Groff or Valentina Fuentes, who had been nominated recently.
Only seven footballers come from abroad. In addition to Antonia Canales in goal, they join Nayadet López Opazo, Fernanda Pinilla, Camila Sáez, Millaray Cortés, Sonya Keefe and Isidora Olave. All of them will be able to add minutes against Uruguay, in friendlies scheduled in recent days.
